variety show. Again, the sporting interest will be merged, this time in the interests of general entertainment.
Another important change already far advanced which will radically alter the character of sporting life is man’s recent discovery of his mind. The punch ball and gloves now hang limply on the wall whilst the one time early riser lies comfortably in bed cherishing the formula by which he grows sturdier and more Spartan in every way. Instead of Sandow we have Pelman, and this will spread to the schools. Enterprising teachers graphically plot the progress of their pupils upon the wall. Small boys will exhibit their I.Q.s and scorn a display of biceps. If Alec Waugh continues to write about it, the change may reach the Public Schools. Again, it is the work of the printing press which is at last beginning to tell. Anagrams and intellectual puzzles of all kinds have existed for the few from ages immemorial, but in the cross-word puzzle the principle is finding a wider appeal.
